Saying atheism is wrong is an absolute statement. An absolute statement is fact. Ergo, if you state something as fact, it must be supported by facts. God's existence is not fact. It is not absolute. It is a possibility, nothing more, and nothing less. So, atheism isn't wrong.

This is so stupid. We only need one thread condemning atheism. We should just get rid of GS and just make one chatroom for all our atheism,pr0n,religion,girls,Barack Obama and Wall-E discussion.

Because a can of Coke represents the uncertainty and dynamics within the universe.

I refuse to use the "If God created the universe, then who created God?" because it's a horrible argument, it's over-used, and it'll be use by the time this thread's over with.

As for the bananas, ever think for a second that humans aren't the only ones that use them? Ever think we humans just adapted to bananas and make, "hey, this makes good food, perhaps we should eat it" after trying other objects?

I'll give you credit. I was expecting less from this thread. This absolutely makes a good case for deism which I've always wanted to argue for despite my atheistic beliefs that there is a central deism design implicit in both evolution and the big bang.

That's a pretty weak reason to be a Christian. How about you believe in Christianity because you feel it's the truth, not because you're going to heaven?

I didn't know that Coke cans had sex.

Maybe science should work on cataloguing the Coca-Cola genome.

What the hell is with the restating of old arguments for the existence of God in extremely simple language. Did you guys hold a convention or something?

btw, Pascal's Wager is a terrible reasons to believe, BECAUSE IT ISN'T AUTHENTIC. Christians are called to believe with all their heart, soul, strength and mind. I found out that most can do the first three, some others can do the last one; rarely does one meet one who does all four, because that would be a person who has faith despite all the doubt, existential anxiety, despair that might come with it.

Doesn't change the fact that their god doesn't exist in their scenario while the other one does.

Because cola cans don't reproduce with variation in an environment where they suffer attrition. Though I still maintain this is a gag thread.

I'm going to try to show how stupid the site is without losing my sanity..

*takes deep breath* Here we go.

1) We know a Coke Can is designed because we can see the process by which the can is made. We can't see the process by which a divine being makes anything.

2) They just had to bring out the banana... I just hope they don't use the peanut butter...

3) Yay, quote mining!

4) (this one is for test two) Yes to all of those with the same reasoning as #1

5) You need proof to convince anyone of any claim... Claiming I painted the Mona Lisa just by taking a crap in a toilet isn't going to fly...

6) The bit involving declarative statements goes both ways.

7) The man who looks at a building at claims it has no designer is a fool because we have records, evidence, to prove that there were builders present.

At least they didn't bring up peanut butter.

Yes actually, I can. Such a perfect world is too perfect for some 'one' to have made it. And it's certainly not God. God's powers are limited by the imagination of the human mind.
